...I suck...

Lying deep in the pit of writer's block that I am, I've decided to hold off on actual writing for the moment, and instead wrote up a list of things I've written in my notebooks that haven't been typed up and polished yet. Usually when I write, I first write the basic thoughts and words in the notebook, then tweak those things and refine them as I ( Read more... )

Aww, writer's block blows. Maybe you just need to take a break from writing, find someone to bounce these ideas off of, or try reading a book, magazine, or even someone else's fanfic or whatever?

Like Tiger Eyes said, writers tend to be tough on themselves anyways (well, those who don't think the sun shines out their butts anyways), so I'm sure that's playing a part here.

It's a little better now. I've gotten a bit of inspiration for a chapter story I'm working on after watching new episodes of the show that premiered over the last two weeks, and it helped ^^

I can definitely be pretty hard on myself when I'm writing though XP After typing up some of those stories I said I'd type up...I still really do hate them XD

Glad to hear it. Just curious, but what show is this?

=D You prolly just need to take a step away from them for a bit, then come back and look at them with fresh eyes. I'm sure they're not as terrible as you think they are.

It's called Wild Kratts, and it's an educational cartoon that teaches kids about animals in the wild. The target audience is pretty young, so the show is really silly most of the time, but it stars Chris and Martin Kratt, two brothers who I used to love watching when I was a kid myself, so I can't help but watch it ^^;

lol Maybe.
